Although a lucky handful of clubs were still involved in the FA Cup this weekend, most
non-league clubs were back to the league this weekend, and we have the highlights from four matches
from yesterday for you tonight. First up are the Blue Square Premier matches between AFC Telford
United and Kettering Town, and Mansfield Town and Forest Green Rovers.

Ahead of this weekend's FA Cup games, we thought it only right to bring you just a teeny weeny
taste of the 'Magic of the Cup™' courtesy of one Wayne Hatswell, a name that will live long in
the memory (possibly) a man who, in one moment of pure unadulterated technical incompetence,
smashed home arguably the worst own-goal ever.

Throughout the day, the QPR Report Messageboard has news updates,
comments and perspectives - even links to other board comments of interest re QPR matters (on and
off the field) along with football (and ONLY football) topics in general.
It's been relatively quiet at Broadhall Way so far this summer. Not that much has happened since
we beat Torquay at Old Trafford that we didn't think was going to happen this summer anyway. I'm
going to attempt to round-up all the news since then and get back to the normal updates as we
approach pre-season.
Plans for a new club crest are the latest in a series of changes for Conference survivors
Forest Green Rovers.
Once upon a time there was a little club on a hill which was the luckiest club around, they
stayed in the Conference year after year.
One day a rich eco-Prince took over.
It has been another week of spin, mixed messages and division at Wrexham FC, but by the time of
the kick-off in their match against Forest Green Rovers this afternoon their supporters may have a
better idea of who the new owners of and investors their club are. It is important to differentiate
between "having a better idea of" and actually knowing, because we know no more about who the
investors behind the Booth bid are than we did at the very beginning.
I've been sick girls.
Not in the conventional sense you understand.
Sick in my heart.
It started back in the summer, in June. My lover was kind and sympathetic as you would expect.
And I was in denial for a while. Then just got absorbed in a wave of negativity.
After four years in enforced exile following the catastophic floods of 2007, Blue Square
North club Gloucester City could be heading back to their home town. Jenni Silver brings up to date
with the latest developments.
It's the news Gloucester City fans have been waiting for – a planning application for a new
ground is on its way, set for submission in the next two weeks.

Phil Sheppard enjoys another weekend away marred only by the football: This is dedicated to Danny
Last and Stuart Fuller, two larry let-downs who have used the excuses of the Berlin derby and
working in LA to wriggle out of a weekend up the M6 (I'm only jealous).
